    Why is my TP-Link Extender speed so slow?
    • K
      Kevin CookAug 11, 2025
      The wireless transmission rate may slow down on your TP-Link Extender because, in compliance with the wireless transmission protocol, all extender devices are set to work in half-duplex instead of full-duplex mode. TP-Link recommends connecting to the extender when your home network connection is poor, or when you want larger wireless coverage to eliminate 'dead zones'.
